Bishop Bob Gillies, who was consecrated last month, was present, a good
turnout of
members enjoyed the opportunity to meet him. |
| September 9th: The concert in St Olaf's went well
despite the last minute withdrawal of one of the performers through ill
health. We were lucky enough to find a local professional who was willing to
step in and fill the gap, resulting in what turned out to be a very enjoyable
and well-balanced programme. Despite a low turn-out due largely to bad
weather, we raised £138, £30 of which has been donated to the local MS Therapy
Centre. |
| September 1st: Tim successfully participated in a 90
mile cycle ride. Thank you to Tim for raising the
magnificent sum of approximately £465 in aid of St. Olaf’s through his
sponsored cycle ride around the Applecross Peninsula in Wester Ross on
Saturday September 1st, together with many other cyclists.
The charity event was plagued by heavy rain and strong winds, with a number of
cyclists sustaining injuries after being blown off their cycles or skidding on
cattle grids. Tim, however, succeeded in completing the course of 90
miles in just over six hours despite experiencing mechanical problems with his
bike. |
| August 25th: The sponsored walk round the Loch of Tankerness, followed by a bring-and-share barbecue lunch,
went very well. We were lucky enough to have a clear spell between to periods
of new gale force winds to do the walk. Six of us walked, and about a dozen
gathered for the barbecue lunch (cooked outside but eaten indoors due to the
weather). We raised nearly £400 for the church fund. |
| The Local Collaborative Ministry annual congregation
review was held on Wednesday 30th May, with the Dean and the Mission and
Ministry Officer. The members of the congregation reviewed the progress
that had been made in the past year, and set the goals for the forthcoming
year.
